Hoon files may want to import nouns from all files in a given directory.
/~ lets you do so, importing as a (map @ta *) (but with typed values).
Note the description as "directories" here, instead of "path prefix".
The behavior, as implemented, will not include /path/hoon for /~ /path,
instead only including /path/more/hoon and more deeply nested files.
This seems to be, generally, the behavior you want, for example when
importing from /app/myapp/* for /app/myapp/hoon.
Actually using the resulting map requires some manual casting, which is
not ideal. Some code style improvement work remains to be done as well.
Fixes#4598.
#4474 made the JSON time conversion no longer invertible, which caused
problems for chat, which uses message timestamp in milliseconds as a key
-- so chat would send a message with ms timestamp x, it would get
encoded as @da x, but then when it went back through the conversion to
milliseconds, it would often (not always) get encoded as x-1.
I still do not fully understand why this is -- and why it doesn't seem
to be a problem with seconds based on cursory testing -- but integer
multiplication and division generally do not invert. And adding a half a
millisecond to the input date before converting it resolves the issue
and makes the functions invertible.
I added a regression test, so hopefully the next courageous adventurer
who winds up here after wondering why +unm looks funny will have a
safeguard against some of the mistakes I made.
State before: in chrono:userlib, there were second-resolution
@da-to-unix and unix-to-@da functions. In en/dejs:format, there were
millisecond-resolution @da-to-unix and unix-to-@da functions. The
@da-to-unix path in time:enjs confusingly rounded to the nearest
millisecond, meaning millisecond n was a label for [n-0.5, n+0.5) rather
than [n, n+1).
This adds a millisecond-resolution @da-to-unix and unix-to-@da to
chrono:userlib, and a second-resolution conversion to en/dejs:format.
It makes use of the chrono:userlib functions in en/dejs, and doesn't do
any rounding.
Backwards-incompatible changes:
- made unt:chrono:userlib take a @da rather than @.
We can't molt until clay has gotten its pork or else we'll build the old
app against the new kernel. This ignores vegas, since we should get a
notification from clay on /sys/lyv.
